I'd say it's important for all of us regardless of the sport. Obviously, running the center on a 110yd x 60yd or larger field or even being an AR and spending a lot of time in a full sprint due to team running a pushed up offisde trap is different than working an 84' x 50' foot floor, but both have their own special physical demands. I for one decided that I didn't like the looks of the person staring back at me in the mirror and it was time to do something about it. I'm 46. I'm not going to out run the 17 - 18 year olds, but I have to do all I can to keep it respectable.
